Murder on the High Seas with Orofino’s Performing Arts – Clearwater Tribune

Orofinos Maniac drama, choir, band, culinary, and art classes teamed up again to produce a fantastic evening of entertainment on May 4. The drama class performed the dinner theater piece, Murder Ahoy by Michael Druce.

The full-length comedy-mystery is set onboard the cruise ship Thanatos. The alumni of Broken Rattan High are gathering for their 30th class reunion when mayhem erupts. OJSHS choir, with Carrington Rinehart as director, stepped up as alumni vocalists and sang several songs from the good old days.

The band jumped in with background music and some carefully placed songs. The culinary class under the leadership of Mike Tetwiler served a hearty buffet taco bar and provided dessert during intermission.

Sonesa Lundmark guided students in designing large porthole paintings to circle the room. Michelle George directed the talented actors.

The night was a hilarious success, and the students presented it again to the school on Monday, May 9.

Approximately 140 people attended the evening performance. Unfortunately, tickets were not sold to the general public as seating was limited and performers had first access to the tickets for family and friends.

Big thanks to everyone for their support.
